If you share your problems, you’ll feel better. 1 Studnets these days often have a lot of worries. Sometimes we have problems with our schoolwork, or arguments with our friends. Perhaps we even worry about our parents’ problems. 2 What can we do about this? The worst thing is to do nothing. Laura Mills, a teenager from London, agrees. Problems and worries are normal in life, says Laura. But I think talking to someone helps a lot. If we don’t talk to anyone, we’ll certainly feel worse.

3 Robert Hunt, a counselor from England, feels the same way. In English, we say that A problem shared is a problem halved. As a counselor, I have to agree with this. We should never run away from our problems .we should always try to solve them. Usually ,the first step is finding someone we trust to talk. 4 Even Mr Hunt agrees that this doesn’t need to be an expert like himself. We can talk to our frineds. Teachers. or our parents. We often forget that our parents have more experience than us, and are always ready to help us. The main thing is to know that if you look for help, you’ll find it .

5 You’ ll feel so much better if you talk to someone, says Laura, for example, I once lost my wallet, and I worried for days, I was scared to tell my parents about it. I even walked three miles to school each day because I lost all my money. I just kept thinking, If I tell my parents, they’ll be angry! Anyway,I bet you can guess how the story ended, I talked to my parents and they were really understanding. My dad said he sometimes made careless mistakes himself. They got me a new wallet and just asked me to be more careful. I felt so much better after talking to them. I will always remember to share my problems in future.
